  • Memory, History, and Entrapment in the Temporal Gateway Film
    Lives in Limbo: Memory, History, and Entrapment in the Temporal Gateway Film Sarah Casey Benyahia A thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) Department of Literature, Film, and Theatre Studies University of Essex October 2018 Abstract This thesis examines the ways in which contemporary cinema from a range of different countries, incorporating a variety of styles and genres, explores the relationship to the past of people living in the present who are affected by traumatic national histories. These films, which I’ve grouped under the term ‘temporal gateway’, focus on the ways in which characters’ experiences of temporality are fragmented, and cause and effect relationships are loosened as a result of their situations. Rather than a recreation of historical events, these films are concerned with questions of how to remember the past without being defined and trapped by it: often exploring past events at a remove through techniques of flashback and mise-en-abyme. This thesis argues that a fuller understanding of how relationships to the past are represented in what have traditionally been seen as different ‘national’ cinemas is enabled by the hybridity and indeterminacy of the temporal gateway films, which don’t fit neatly into existing categories discussed and defined in memory studies. This thesis employs an interdisciplinary approach in order to draw out the features of the temporal gateway film, demonstrating how the central protagonist, the character whose life is in limbo, personifies the experience of living through the past in the present. This experience relates to the specifics of a post-trauma society but also to a wider encounter with disrupted temporality as a feature of contemporary life.

  • 1,000 Films to See Before You Die Published in the Guardian, June 2007
    1,000 Films to See Before You Die Published in The Guardian, June 2007 http://film.guardian.co.uk/1000films/0,,2108487,00.html Ace in the Hole (Billy Wilder, 1951) Prescient satire on news manipulation, with Kirk Douglas as a washed-up hack making the most of a story that falls into his lap. One of Wilder's nastiest, most cynical efforts, who can say he wasn't actually soft-pedalling? He certainly thought it was the best film he'd ever made. Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (Tom Shadyac, 1994) A goofy detective turns town upside-down in search of a missing dolphin - any old plot would have done for oven-ready megastar Jim Carrey. A ski-jump hairdo, a zillion impersonations, making his bum "talk" - Ace Ventura showcases Jim Carrey's near-rapturous gifts for physical comedy long before he became encumbered by notions of serious acting. An Actor's Revenge (Kon Ichikawa, 1963) Prolific Japanese director Ichikawa scored a bulls-eye with this beautifully stylized potboiler that took its cues from traditional Kabuki theatre. It's all ballasted by a terrific double performance from Kazuo Hasegawa both as the female-impersonator who has sworn vengeance for the death of his parents, and the raucous thief who helps him. The Addiction (Abel Ferrara, 1995) Ferrara's comic-horror vision of modern urban vampires is an underrated masterpiece, full- throatedly bizarre and offensive. The vampire takes blood from the innocent mortal and creates another vampire, condemned to an eternity of addiction and despair. Ferrara's mob movie The Funeral, released at the same time, had a similar vision of violence and humiliation.

  • Malinconico Ludwig Studiava Da Attore
    MALINCONICO LUDWIG STUDIAVA DA ATTORE La prima tentazione è quella di definire Ludwig 1881, il film dei fratelli Donatello e Fosco Dubini presentato in concorso a Locarno, un omaggio a vent'anni di distanza al "classico" di Luchino Visconti. Se la si guarda meglio, però, questa piccola produzione svizzero-tedesca dai meriti superiori al budget (è uno tra i titoli migliori visti finora al festival) dispone di un'autonomia molto precisa dal suo - presunto - modello alto. In primo luogo nel modo con cui gli sceneggiatori hanno concepito il mitico re di Baviera; poi nel tono sommesso e intimo, là dove la versione viscontiana era fastosa e magniloquente; e ancora in una continua vena d'ironia, rappresentata da una coppia di valletti alla Rosencrantz e Guildenstern che commentano tutta l'azione. Ludwig 1881 racconta un episodio autentico della vita del re, testimoniato da un carteggio fra Ludwig e il suo amante, nonché attore alla corte di Monaco, Josef Kainz. Nell'estate dell'81 i due uomini viaggiano in incognito sul lago dei Quattro Cantoni, celati sotto pseudonimi presi a prestito da Victor Hugo. Il re vuole che l'attore gli reciti scene del Guglielmo Tell di Schiller sullo sfondo degli scenari naturali svizzeri e - per renderne più convincente l'immedesimazione, lo spinge a camminate fra le nevi perenni o a levatacce per vedere l'alba sul Rigi. Ma la quota di "Sturm und Drang" del giovanotto si rivelerà molto al di sotto delle regali aspettative. Eppure il film dei Dubini un elemento in comune con quello di Visconti lo ha, ed è la presenza di Helmut Berger: Ludwig per eccellenza (benché altri attori abbiano interpretato il ruolo del re di Baviera, nella versione di Sjberberg e altrove) tornato a vestire il personaggio con tratti rinnovati e maggiore sicurezza interpretativa.

  • Vittorio De Sica, 1946, 1948, 1951, 1952, 1960, 1970)
    1 Sciuscià, Ladri di Biciclette, Miracolo a Milano, Umberto D, La Ciociara, Il Giardino dei Finzi-Contini (Vittorio de Sica, 1946, 1948, 1951, 1952, 1960, 1970) I first saw Vittorio de Sica in the Rock Hudson / Jennifer Jones version of A Farewell to Arms . He was very moving, I thought, being shot by a firing squad. He turned up all the time playing smooth and charming middle-aged Italians. These days The Shoes of the Fishermen is on fortnightly on TCM, and there he is, a cardinal to the life. In filmed interviews he’s always smooth, charming, well-dressed – a kind of Italian Ronald Coleman, but with, you can sense, more latent gravity. He contrasts always with Cesare Zavattini, his long-time scriptwriter, who’s sandpaper-rough, grinning and monosyllabic. In other words, de Sica was a professional, keen on maintaining his image in a profession where image is all. But he made, when the professionals weren’t looking, some of the best and most influential films there are. —————————— An “early Italian neo-realist masterpiece”. Close inspection of Sciuscià reveals what we see in Rosselini’s Roma, Città Aperta , that other, even earlier “Italian neo-realist masterpiece”: excellent professional acting, polished photography, and half of the action – the juvenile prison sequences – done in a studio. One shot – where the prison van containing the two protagonists pulls away from the court where they’ve been sentenced, and we see, from their viewpoint, the little sister of one of them, running after the vehicle in tears – is very close to the shot in Roma … where Magnani runs after the Nazi van containing her husband.
